Grand Cayman OOT bags


ls415

Recommended Posts

I got married in Aruba, which is obviously not the Caymans, but a tropical island nonetheless. I had more guests than some of the girls how posted on this thread (50 for me), so the OOT bags were smaller. I figured I'd share and add a different flavor for anyone who's still in the OOT bag planning phase.

 

The resort where we got married and where our guests stayed is an all-inclusive. I decided that it would be a little redundant to put food and drinks in the bags. I tried to include things that are useful, usually forgotten, or in keeping with our wedding theme (flip flops).

 

 

I gave 1 bag per single person, or 1 bag per couple (with most of the items doubled up - not deck of cards, aloe wipes, tourist information, letter), or 1 bag per family (same as couples' bag but with sand toy and extra gummies for the child).

And yes the shipping was relatively easy just make sure you go online and get the appropriate international shipping documents printed and filled out, it will speed up the process at Fed Ex.   Oh yeah, also was told by my wc that FED EX better than UPS.....so that is what I did. Fed ex.

 

Everyone was super excited to get our bags.....were used and seen on the beach while we were there...it was a backpack type.  I put welcome letter and the map show here.....

Hey there, since I started this thread, I wanted to follow up and share what I ended up using for my OOT bags.

 

-Tags, ribbon, and white pen from Paper Source from home

-Cartoon Map ordered online weeks ahead of time

-We designed and printed a welcome letter and itinerary at home and brought with us, wrapped it around the map with a bow.

Everything else I bought on island when I got there:

-White bags and tissue paper from Cayman party store (I blew my budget buying everything else)

-Regular & light Caybrew

-Tortuga Rum

-Tortuga Rum Cake

-Saltwater Taffy

-Shot glass

 

It was simple but very well received.  Decided against the toiletries etc. because I wanted to give them a sense of local flare vs. trying to guess at what they might have forgotten to pack.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
